Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

F. ex., how many Schmidts, Muellers, Schwartzs and other German-rooted people live in the USA with US nationality??? Or Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Joel and others are also descendants of previous immigrants. So what???

That´s so strange, actually ALL Americans are immigrants, descendants of Spanish, English and other European pilgrims who´d originally founded the USA. The only REAL Americans are the Natives. 😮😮😮

Well at least he gets it...so many on the "left" don't seem to be clued in to the real agenda here. We are witnessing the living embodiment of Niemöller's expository poem.

Congress should pass a bill granting amnesty to "illegal immigrants" (aka undocumented immigrants) who are law-abiding members of US society, like the woman from China he mentions, who've been present in the US at least 1 year and have no criminal record. Challenge Trump to sign it like Reagan did.

We need far more Senators and Reps publicly stating this message because it is true. GOP, if you're not speaking up against President Pig's immigration bigotry you're part of the problem; you WILL be voted out if you're on the ballot in 2026. ALL of his children are "chain migration" Americans.

Mark Kelly gave Netanyahu dozens of enthusiastic standing ovations his last visit, and takes bribe money in return for genociding the people of Palestine. That's disturbing. And very American.

They spell it out plainly in Project 2025. They want a white Christofascist nation controlled by white males with subservient females. All others are either in a servant role, slaving in worker camps, or sent to extermination camps. This is not a drill.

I'll help 'em write it. Get rid of the electoral college, straight majority. Tax billionaires 75% break up corporate monopolies. Free healthcare for all citizens and immigrants. Guaranteed basic income, rent assistance. Tax food industries out of business, subsidize family farms and food markets.

You’re gonna be accused of being a far left lunatic. Maybe ease up on the free healthcare for immigrants and make them write five times each year in order to get their insurance coverage card - “I love the United States as much as the fake patriots on the right.“ then it really wouldn’t be free.

I like your ideas. There has to be something written & promoted to explain plans to voters & to shove the plans down MAGAS’ throats (or up somewhere else). Russ Vought & Kevin Roberts did that with Project 2025. They want to undo & recreate the US; Dems should show how to FIX it.

You mean you want a free and fair society for all Americans without everything being controlled by multi-billionaires? But.....but....but that's Socialism..... Sobering thought, but, if fElon Musk lost 99% of his wealth over night..... he'd still be a multi-billionaire. Capitalism has gone crazy

OK, when democrats regain power, we pass a law defining income/wealth target distributions and enact policies for a 10-year plan to reach those targets. This generates public discussion, makes the goals explicit, and allows for measurement of progress. 1/2

That's exactly what he is saying. He's not smart enough not does he know what the definition of a third world country actually is, so he's talking about people of color.

He only cares about himself and the other billionaires for the purpose of grifting off of them. The richer the better and it doesn't matter how they got it or who they hurt in the process.

Many have surpassed anything he ever did but that doesnt matter to racists. Their main claim to being superior is based on nothing more than colour. This is why it appeals to dumbass losers who can give nothing to the world, they can just claim their colour puts them on top.

He LIkes to "PRETEND" It isn't true! Can he say "Tuskegee Airmen"?¿? Just one example of TRUE Americans! Thank~you for your SERVICE❣️❣️ What do you expect from this guy? A Real draft dodger,(bonespurs) who says soilders are suckers & losers! MAYBE,if he could 🤔 📚 READ he could make informed choice‼️

And when all people of color are removed from America, all the middle aged white people can take those jobs cleaning public toilets, bending over in a dirt field for 14 hours a day planting and picking food, collecting garbage, building resort hotels, all for below poverty wages. Good luck.

Because corporations like Black Rock who own most of the housing, don't give a rat's ass about how the money boxes are built, just how much they can make for their personal gain. Ask a Black Rock employee. They now admit it with orange Fuhrer in power.

Trump thinks everyone who isn’t white and rich, is from a “third world country”, and therefore should be deported from America! I don’t believe this is the same democratic country that I’ve lived in since birth… he’s personally trying to change it, and it’s NOT for the better!

I really enjoy Mark Kelly. I know he’s not the most progressive candidate out there, but he feels authentic. Right now he’s got stern dad/grumpy gym teacher vibes. Like you’ll really believe he won’t back down to these guys.

I want to know what nationality is his VP’s wife? Or another perspective is brown is the color of the majority of the world. “There aren’t enough white persons in our country who are willing to cherish democratic principles over privilege.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

We all know what he’s saying. He is the first (openly) KKK President. Add to that the first known sex offender and prime suspect in the biggest pedophile scandal ever. Shall I go on to list his other crimes both fiscal and moral? No need, I think. He is a mob boss.

The REALITY, with this JERK of an ILLEGITIMATE POTUS, is that HE TOTALLY DESPISES WHO HE IS‼️...HE takes out HIS OWN INSECURITIES, which are Over the Top, on the Most Vulnerable of our population‼️...HE IS A DISGUSTING EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING‼️

I only meant that the 🐓💩🍊🤡 and his ilk have made it clear how widespread and deeply the racism runs. Sure, we all knew the Tpubicans were discriminatory, but most of YT America didn’t understand its true nature.

That is exactly what he is saying. He only wants rich white people in the country. For only they can pay the bribes he is collecting. He started down this path last time he was in the WH.

As much as General Kelly is a bonafide honest operator, in a larger context is astounding how Americans keep discovering the same reality about their current chief executive every single day. Like deer paralysed in the headlights of their own racism.

R racism is rank. Modern day GOP tho has always been a haven for racists, especially racists who pretend ow. There’s the rest, who claim not to have seen it all for decades. The R platform is always packed w/ “conservative” slogans designed to hide the truth. “Strong on border security”, 1 example.

doesn't want "illegals" as he pardons the convicted drug dealer ... ex President of Honduras ... now that is a criminal who should stay locked away and then expelled...... but he is a buddy of Trump grubby "White House"

People need to understand that violence is what Trump wants. He wants people to freak out because then he can declare martial law and never leave the presidency. Try to keep it civil. The Guardsmen/women do not deserve to be hurt or killed.

Actually that is not news to me! REMEMBER when he went down the escalator calling Mexican people, rapists and criminals? 👺👺 that it is what he is. 😱

The phrase 3rd world, was used during the cold war. 1st world, is countries aligned w/ the US. 2nd world is countries against the US. 3rd world is neither. What Trump is saying is 1st is well of, 2nd is okay, 3rd is poor

Trump has destroyed our prosperity and morally ripped this nation apart..eliminating non whiteness is his answer to everything.. unfortunately not only white but many people of color still support his whitewashing 🤷‍♂️

I’m old enough to remember George Wallace and the reaction to him. It’s appalling how we — and the media — have just gotten used to the current daily barrage of racism and the demonization of his enemies

When the brain deteriorates, the basic core is exposed, without the inhibitions & social restraints/norms that a normal brain would control. A younger 34-felon could hide/restrain that core. No more...

But it's being guided by the APOCALYPTIC religious animals and nutjobs that want all of us dead so we're out the way to build their religious Nazi 4th Reich. That is literally the plan. It's called war. And u dopes don't do shit about it.

I believe that the people who follow him and seem devoted have to be just like him racist to the core.You know when you meet someone like that you can never put your finger on that feeling that somethings just not right but in time they do show their true colors.

Came here to say that. Once filter is gone, it’s who they really are. My mum is all about loving cats and books, and ballet, and music. That PoS is what he’s always been vacuous vessel full of hate.

Perhaps Sen. Kelly means well, but “brown people” softens the truth. This isn’t about color-coding — it’s about white supremacy, the same structure born in Reconstruction and still driving immigration rhetoric. You can’t fix a system you refuse to name.

And to all of you who wrap yourselves in “white” — the Irish who earned their whiteness by policing Black bodies, the Italians who traded their immigrant struggle for entry into the caste — you keep pretending this isn’t about white supremacy because the illusion of whiteness feels safe.

That is exactly right. When Trump and Stephen Miller say that NYC will be a “third world country” does anyone think that they believe NYC (at city with a GDP of $1.2 trillion, that is one of the most important financial hubs of the world), will really be set back to “developing world” status?

Trump is an American purist, a pure American racist. We get that. But he also represents 1/3 of the American public who are also racist. We get that too. But the racial demographic is inexorably changing in this country. American(WASPYism) is disintegrating and will soon vanish. We get that too.

I think the number of racists in America well exceeds one-third of the adult population. Maybe one-third is overtly racist but another large group is covertly racist or at least accepting of the norms and stereotypes that allow systemic racism to persist.

Also the demographic shift doesn’t necessarily eradicate racism as some recent immigrants and some minorities can be racist as well—against other marginalized groups and even (tragically) by absorbing some of the systemic racist stereotypes applied to their own group.

The latter phenomenon isn’t always discussed, but I once spoke to a young black man graduating from high school whether he was applying for college. He told me college isn’t for black people. Black people excel at sports and music he told me, not school.

I feel when Trump says "third world countries," he means the wealthiest folk in that country can't afford his rates. OR they refused to "make a deal" with him. So he calls them names. I doubt Trump even understands the phrase.

Thank you for saying outloud what we Americans are surely thinking about this man-child that wanted to be pres. Only to make a discusting shambles of OUR ONCE GREAT COUNTRY, others are laughing @ the orange clown show! Creepy false king wants a gold crown! HE REALLY needs to SEE Game of Thrones‼️

Kelly@broadwaybabyto.bsky.social

19 year old freshman just wants to go home for Thanksgiving to see her family, she gets deported to Honduras. Former President of Honduras who’s serving 45 years in prison for drug trafficking? He gets a full presidential pardon. Both are Honduran. Only one is a criminal.

Absolutely... Why else is south Africa, Ireland, UK, Scandinavia, Canada ok? Its always been about skin color and cultures... Ask an actual American with a different skin tone... start with American Indians...tormented from the first year whites arrived

We this gross President think he owns the whole dam country so he what's only white people here well he's wrong this country was build on many different kinds of people. We have many different cultures food music clothes and its wonderful to have wonderful different people living in this country.

And if you’re a racist white person cheering, know this: it won’t stop with brown people. A fascist has to have an enemy. He will never be done getting rid of “them.” So next will be the gay people. Or the fat people. Or the people with brown eyes… When one group is unsafe, we’re ALL unsafe.

I mean, he demonized greencard holders, naturalized citizens, birthright citizens, ppl who complain about the US, and anyone who is “incompatible” with western culture. So they obviously aren’t just talking about undocumented at this point. What they want is remigration of all POC/non-Christian ppl:

Trump is anti-American. Things are going to get a whole lot worse because he knows he's losing the American people and he will do whatever he has to to stay in power. America first was just a ploy to get votes - Trump is Trump first, I don't understand how anyone could've thought any differently.

Trump’s been a racist his entire life! So was his father. He’s not going to change now unfortunately and there isn’t anyone in his administration is going to say anything!

Amen - there estimate over 100 k illegal Russians escaping the war hiding in the US I dont see any ice raids on them ! This is all racism …. Importing white spawn of apartheid, giving green cards to ultra right white racists this is all Steven Miller dream to bleach america & republicans love it

Trump said Afrikaners were allowed as refugees “because they’re being killed.” U.S. "extended citizenship to those people to escape from that violence.” Whites are not targeted, and black farmers are killed more often than white. But, 1,000s of other Africans (black) are being killed... so???

Unlike Gavin Newsome who wears his ambition on his sleeve Kelly and his ilk portray themselves as the serious adults in the room. The adults who followed orders to kill, kidnap, and destroy as former cogs in the NatSec machine. NatSec Dems made their careers killing brown people in foreign wars.

Luck@mrthagoo.bsky.social

Foreign Policy for America (FP4A) was established in response to Trump's first win. They believe former NatSec officials are the future of the party. They support candidates like Mark Kelly (former USN) and Abigail Spanberger (former CIA). The President of J Street is on their board.

Mark Kelly flew 39 missions during Desert Storm which killed 100,000+ brown people in Iraq for the US so he knows what he's talking about. They also targeted power stations, railroads, dams, sewage treatment, TV stations etc. The Democratic Establishment's answer to socialism is Natsec Dems.
